Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Teague Talks with Grey Raines, Raines
Q: Why pursue independent and soft-brand projects alongside hard-brand hotels?
Because some properties are so unique that they deserve a tailored experience; independent projects let us design, curate, and execute every detail, aligning with guest expectations for local, authentic experiences.
Teague Talks with Grey Raines, Raines
Q: How did you get into development and what was your first real project with your father?
The first real development work came after his health forced him to step back; I joined during a Spring Hill Suites project, learned on the job, and gradually moved into more development roles as I raised outside capital in 2008.
Teague Talks with Greg Kennealey, Peregrine Hospitality
Q: What is Peregrine today? How do you define the business and what's your strategy going forward?
Peregrine is positioned as an owner-operator with aligned incentives and a focus on maximizing portfolio performance. The company seeks selective growth through acquisitions, leveraging a broader platform post-integration, and prioritizing capital-light, value-creating opportunities in select-service, boutique, and resort properties.
Teague Talks with Greg Kennealey, Peregrine Hospitality
Q: So how has the world changed from 2022 when we sat down four years ago? What's different now?
He describes macro shifts including higher interest rates, inflationary pressures, geopolitical tensions, tariffs, and the World Cup's uncertain impact on travel, stressing the need for agile, selective investing and a disciplined approach to asset-level value creation.
Teague Talks with Greg Kennealey, Peregrine Hospitality
Q: We did one of these already, but who was Greg Kennealey? How did we get into the hospitality business? Give us the short Cliff Notes version.
Greg shares a winding career path that started in technology consulting, moved through Kellogg School of Management, and led to a key mentorship with a chief hotel executive that eventually steered him into real estate and hotel asset management, culminating in co-founding Peregrine through strategic leadership roles.
